Myoung Ho Lee extricates trees from their normal surroundings by drawing a line between the surreal and intervention-based photography. The trees are lit in a way that they produce no shadows along the backdrop, allowing the viewer to question whether the tree belongs in the environment or whether it’s a portrait of a tree placed within an environment. The result leaves you fixated on just how picturesque everyday life can be.

Okay, now that I’ve gotten the pretentiousness of the pictures out of the way, I just think they’re fun to look at.
